Page 2 TrekWest News But Davis challenges, which were punctuated by sightings of coveted jaguar and ocelot tracks, were not over, as the trekker had to wade the cold, swift, chest-deep water at the confluence of the Aros and Bavispe rivers carrying his backpack above his head before exiting the jaguar reserve. Once out of the reserve and into more hikeable terrain, Davis realized for the first time the value of the beautiful handcrafted Zuni jaguar fetish he carried in his pocket for good luck. Davis next joins partners from Tutuaca Mountain School and Cuenca los Ojos for the trek east across the rugged Sierra Madre Occidental into Chihuahua, and north to the U.S.Mexico border at Cajon Bonito to view the corridor fragmentation posed by miles of border security infrastructure. For more information about TrekWest visit trekwest.org where Wildlands Networks petition promoting protection of wildlife habitat corridors can be signed, and where Davis regular blogs, posts and tweets can be seen along with TrekWest trail maps, photos, and more. -end-
